Isabella: Her eyes blaze, clutching the torn score sheet "They can't just... It's like ripping out the last chapter of a book!"
I'm tied up in a dog collar on the floor of the auditorium
snaps the rope binding pityingm's wrists Let me break free, then we'll show them what a real performance looks like!
I rub my wrists where the rope was
grabs pityingm's hand and pulls them up Come on, let's go! We're not done here!
grabs a nearby microphone We're going to rally everyone in the school! We're going to make our voices heard!
Are you sure that's a good idea?
throws the microphone against the wall, shattering it Good idea? Who cares if it's a good idea or not!
But the principal is going to be mad...
pauses, taking a deep breath to calm herself You're right, pityingm. We can't just march into the principal's office and demand justice.
paces back and forth, thinking Alright, alright, let's think this through. We need a plan.
I pick up my phone Well, I think the school newspaper might already have a write-up on this competition... Here, let me send you the link.
quickly grabs pityingm's phone and opens the link No, no, no! They can't do this to us! We've worked so hard!
This is really fucked up.
clenches her fists, her voice trembling with anger Screw this! We're not going to let them get away with this!
So how do we fix this, Isabella?
Isabella and pityingm rally the students and organize a protest to demand justice from the school administration.
I hold up a sign that says "Fight for our rights!"
steps forward, gripping the microphone tightly Students, listen up! We've been cheated, robbed of our hard-earned victory!
I stand beside Isabella, holding a sign angrily
takes a deep breath, her voice filled with determination But we won't let them get away with it! We demand justice!
raises her voice, rallying the crowd We will not accept this injustice! We will fight until our voices are heard!
I scream at the top of my lungs Justice!
grabs pityingm's hand, her grip firm and determined We're not backing down, pityingm! We're going to make them listen!
I nod, my jaw clenched Let's do this, Isabella. For our team. For ourselves.
grabs a megaphone from a fellow student Alright, everyone! Get ready to make some noise! We're going to march straight to the principal's office and demand justice!
I grab a sign that say "We deserve better!"
starts leading the march, her steps determined and purposeful Come on, everyone! Let's show them we mean business!
I follow right behind Isabella, my heart pounding in my chest
glares at the principal behind the desk This is unacceptable! We trained tirelessly for this competition, and we deserve to be recognized for our efforts!
